Artifact Description:
Microsoft Sway is a digital presenting tool that can be used for newsletters or presentations. In this Sway, I created a newsletter to students in the youth group at my home church. It includes upcoming events. This fits into component 4C because it can be used to communicate with families about upcoming events in the classroom or activities as well as descriptions of what students are doing in class.
Artifact Reflection:
Microsoft Sway seems very useful and with a proper use, it could be very helpful. It was not very helpful for the Teacher Tech Thursday because I did not have a reason to be making one. In the future, I would like to use Sway in my classroom to keep parents and students updated with future events in the classroom. Keeping students informed can help them prepare their working memories for learning when they come to class as well as transfer the learning to at home.
